Evidence of seasonal variability of SSU rRNA genes. A The abundance of major taxa of protists and metazoans in Lake Mendota by season. Circles are colored by the season of the year and sized according to total abundance via CPM\(_{\text {contig}}\) for that month. B Alpha diversity as assessed by extracting OTUs with TPM of 100 or greater. Distributions of alpha diversity are shown for both eukaryotes and bacteria for each month of the year in the time series. C Proportion of total observed taxa present in each season of the dataset for (left) bacteria and (right) eukaryotes
